User reviews

This is a nice tool to get the summary of the selected text in a web page in chrome browser. The summary in a paragraph style; not in bulleted format. In the summary text, after each sentence, there is an extra space before the period. For example, if we check the screenshot in the 'Overview' section of this extension, we can clearly understand it. The user needs to manually remove the extra space preceding each period before he use the text somewhere. Apart from this the tool looks nice.
